Forming and wrapping system for soft caramels with comic strip
In confectionery production, consistently packaging soft caramels with an integrated comic strip requires precision. This complexity demands solutions that ensure high output, accurate cutting, and reliable wrapping without compromising product quality.

Cut, form, and wrap soft caramels with comic strip
The EW8 is a specialized forming, cutting, and wrapping system designed by Theegarten-Pactec for the confectionery industry. This machine ensures that each soft caramel, toffee, chewy sweet, or chewing gum product is accurately cut and wrapped with a comic strip in a side fold. The process involves feeding the packaging material (both outer wrapper and comic strip) from a single reel, which is then separated by a fixed knife. The EW8 can handle up to 600 products per minute, maintaining a high standard of productivity and reliability. The integration of the comic strip as an inner wrapper not only makes the packaging visually appealing but also adds a playful element to the product, enhancing consumer experience. Additionally, an alternative model U1-EFC is available for higher output rates. This system supports the production requirements for consistent and aesthetically pleasing packaging solutions across various confectionery items.
